Chapter 15: A Night of Terror
In the meeting hall, Dongfang Lenglan sat in the middle, and there was a lot of rambling, which roughly means that there is a mineral vein in the middle of the No. 36 wasteland, and now a large number of people are urgently needed to mine and expel the demon beasts that occupy the mineral veins.
Dongfang Lenglan repeatedly emphasized the discipline many times before announcing: "Gather in the camp square in two quarters of an hour, this mission is not trivial, it is done, everyone has a realm pill, just like that, disperse!"
......
Under the leadership of Dongfang Lenglan, almost all the members of the No. 36 wasteland were dispatched, and the destination was the middle of the wasteland!
After six hours of trekking, the group finally reached the middle of the wasteland, and the final destination was a huge valley with three peaks of different heights at the end of the valley.
The peaks look like the thumb, index finger, and middle finger side by side, so it is called the Three Finger Mountain, the three peaks are named Thumb Peak, Index Finger Peak, and Middle Finger Peak, respectively, and the valley is called the Three Finger Valley.
Underneath each peak, there is a cave with a faint mist that exudes a refreshing smell.
"This is aura atomization!" Qin Ran muttered!
After the camp is stationed, the 9 teams in the Qi training period are evenly distributed among the three foundation building teams, that is to say, one foundation building mercenary team is in charge of the 3 Qi training teams.
The one who managed Qin Ran was Team 3, and the leader was a black-faced man who had built a successful foundation, and the black-faced man didn't talk much, but the occasional ruthless aura on his body made people's scalp tingle.
This must be a murderous man!
After the team was assigned, it was late at night.
In Cao Yandong's mansion, everyone was there, and the atmosphere was very dignified.
Cao Yan: "We were assigned to 3 groups, which is a bad number. ”
Qin Ran agreed: "The boss is right, I have observed, the combat power of the first and second groups is significantly higher than that of the third group, they must be the main force of the spiritual vein reclamation, and our third group must be the forward." ”
Cao Yan: "To put it bluntly, it is cannon fodder, which is used to open roads and do hard work." ”
Yi Mingxuan: "Boss, how do we deal with it this time?"
After Cao Yan roughly explained the way to deal with it, he let everyone disperse.
Qin Ran returned to the cave he had just dug, took out the pure spirit fruit and put it to his mouth, and was about to swallow it, but suddenly stopped moving.
In the afterglow, on the fresh dirt wall, a pointed mouth was exposed.
It was a pale gray mouse, the size of an adult's fist.
The gray rat looked strange, there was no trace of it, it looked like it had no weight, and it didn't look like a physical object that it normally saw.
Qin Ran suspected that this thing was invisible.
He pretended to be indifferent and slowly put away the spirit fruit.
The mouse came to Qin Ran's side quietly, and when it was only a foot away from him, it suddenly jumped up, revealing its sharp, hideous teeth, and bit Qin Ran's neck with a mouthful!
However, it was greeted by a sharp flying sword.
"Poof!"
The flying sword instantly sank into the abdomen of the mouse, killing him with one sword!
The rat didn't even make a sound, and there was an incredible look in his eyes, dead!
At this moment, the fox's faint voice reminded: This is the source energy, absorb it quickly!
Qin Ran thought for a while, and began to absorb it according to the method taught by the fox.
But I saw that the rat quickly dried up, and it turned into nothingness, leaving nothing.
The fox imprint revealed an eagerness, but Qin Ran resolutely transmitted the origin energy to the system, and the abnormal state of the system also needed to be repaired by the origin energy.
However, the system does not seem to have changed.
"***" A message came from the fox mark, Qin Ran saw all stars, but he knew that this fox must be cursing him.
He just said something and didn't take it to heart.
"Ah......h
A sharp voice pierced the night sky, the voice was frightened, hasty, and seemed to be frightened even by the guts.
Qin Ran rushed out, followed the sound and ran over, and saw a woman with a disheveled hair, her face was pale, and she screamed loudly: "Dead man, dead man, woo woo...... , my Taoist couple, my Taoist couple......"
This woman Qin Ran knows, nicknamed "Feng Niang", who practices wind spells, and is a member of the 7th team hired during the Qi training period, and has just been assigned to a group with Qin Ran today.
"What's the noise?" A young man in Chinese clothes walked over, it was Hua Tianyu who was in charge of the inspection, and he was followed by a person, who was good at responding to people.
Qin Ran's eyes narrowed, and he actually built a foundation!
Shanyingren first glanced at Qin Ran quite proudly, and then ran to Feng Niang and asked about the situation carefully.
"It's ...... inside" Feng Niang was obviously frightened, her mouth trembled and she pointed to the cave, her eyes were full of fear, and she couldn't even speak.
Shanyingren shook his head, and after receiving Hua Tianyu's instructions, he carefully opened Feng Niang's cave mansion.
In a few moments, a dry corpse appeared in front of everyone.
Mummy?
Everyone was shocked, at this point in time, it was only 3 hours before the completion of the camp, what could suck a person dry?
Could it be that the "Feng Niang" has cultivated the method of double cultivation? But there is no sign of them practicing this kind of exercise.
Qin Ran's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart, could it be a ghost made by a mouse?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly searched in the crowd, and when he found that all the members of the 6 teams hired during the Qi training period were unharmed, he was slightly relieved.
Hua Tianyu looked at Feng Niang coldly: "Is it a ghost that you did?"
Feng Niang muttered to herself: "It's not me, it's not me...... Woo woo, it's not me ......"
No matter how Hua Tianyu and Shanying people interrogated, she would only say these few words, obviously scared and lost her mind.
Hua Tianyu pointed to Shanyingren: "You go and call everyone else out." ”
After the good response person got the order, he checked the past one by one, and no one answered in 5 caves, and after forcibly breaking open, he found that there were dry corpses inside, and the Taoist companions who followed Feng Niang were generally the same.
And among the dried corpses, two of them turned out to be foundation building monks.
Even the foundation building monks were silently sucked dry, how could it be?
At this time, a cold wind blew, and everyone in the venue trembled, how did these people die?
Qin Ran's body was cold, his scalp was numb, and he was basically sure of one thing now, that is, it must be the strange rat who killed these people!
But in his impression, there is no information about this mouse.
A rat capable of sucking people into a dry corpse, unheard of, unseen.
He wondered if if he hadn't seen the rat trying to sneak attack, would it have ended up like the dead men?
Thinking that he was sucked into a dried corpse, Qin Ran felt a chill, and even the soles of his feet were cold.
The night was thick, but no one dared to go back to the cave to practice or cultivate, fear was pervasive, and the timid were already so frightened that their teeth chattered.
Qin Ran moved his feet and accidentally touched a pair of cold hands.
"Ah......h
